Last night on 80m it was kind of funny as I was spotted at least twice while
I was calling PT0S.  Must have had a big signal but no QSO.

I'll run the race, and I will never be the same again.

I don't understand the objection to W3LPL spots.  As I understand it, 
Frank is aggregating spots from a lot of skimmers and weeding out the 
bad one -- blown callsigns, flaky frequencies) and posting only clean 
spots.  What's the problem with that? I have VE7CC filters set to accept 
spots from W6, W7, VE7, VE6, plus CO and NM, and I purposely include PA 
in my "accept spots" list to get them, so that I know what the East 
Coast is hearing as a "preview" of what I might hear later. I also look 
at KH6 spots for the same reason.
